What Causes Sinkholes in Albany
The Dougherty Plain's karst limestone dissolves unevenly over time, and the region's high water table and artesian spring activity are exactly the conditions that produce real sinkholes here, more so than almost anywhere else in Georgia.
How We Fix Sinkholes
Depending on what our evaluation finds, we use compaction grouting — pumping a cement-and-grout mixture deep into the soil to fill voids and stabilize the ground — or void filling, which lifts and supports affected concrete with structural polyurethane foam. Both methods are done with a real diagnosis first, not guesswork.
